MTL - I Became An Acre Of Haunted Land-Chapter 67 Zongmen in troubled times

In a dark basement in Jiangnan City, several people whose faces could not be seen were whispering.

"We worked so hard to wake up the King of Jiangnan, hoping to form an alliance with him. Now you tell me that the King of Jiangnan is gone?"

The leader was wearing a green robe, and a felt hat covered most of his face. His tone was low, revealing a trace of suppressed anger, and he was yelling at the others.

"Do you know how much we paid to wake up the King of Jiangnan?"

"Two months of planning, three middle-level operators who have entered the Ability Bureau, support from peripheral personnel, and a lot of funds..."

"Now you tell me that the King of Jiangnan is gone?"

As if to swallow a few people, the leader of the felt hat said through gritted teeth.

Several people were silent, sweat dripped from their cheeks, and they didn't dare to answer at all.

"Tell me, what's going on here?"

Seeing that no one dared to answer, the leader of the felt hat directly picked the person closest to him and asked.

When the figure saw that the leader had found him, he was startled and broke into a lot of cold sweat. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and explained.

"After King Jiangnan woke up, people from the Ability Bureau rushed over, and we didn't have time to contact him at all."

"and then?"

"Then Director Luo took the initiative to provoke the Jiangnan King and was arrested, exposing the strength of the Jiangnan King. This touched the nerves of the military department. Basically, the moment Director Luo was captured, the people from the military department rushed over immediately. "

"At this time, we have no chance to contact. You also know that if we appear rashly, it will be easily detected by the military."

"what's next?"

"Next... the military department will take over. The King of Jiangnan may be absolutely difficult to deal with, so he just hid underground."

"Have you tried to contact King Jiangnan?"

"We have been arranging supernatural beings to look for opportunities underground to contact King Jiangnan, but...the people in the military department also value Jiangnan King very much. All kinds of advanced equipment have been prepared long ago, and we have no chance at all."

"Okay, after this step, what do you mean by telling me that King Jiangnan is gone?"

"...The people in the military department have already evacuated Jiangnan City. If there is no accident, it is very likely that the Jiangnan King has been completely wiped out. According to our judgment, if the Jiangnan King is not dead, they will never leave."

"Did someone from the military make a statement on the radio?"

"This...not really."

"The King of Jiangnan made such a big noise. In line with the rumors we spread in Jiangnan City, the military department left without even making a statement?"

"Yes, it is."

"Is there any explanation from the city hall about this time?"

"Well, there is. The spokesperson of the city hall said that the military personnel conducted an in-city drill in Jiangnan City. Now the drill has been successfully concluded and very important results have been achieved. Through this drill, the military can quickly Cooperate with the city hall to quickly counterattack the beasts that accidentally entered Jiangnan City, so as to avoid the scene of giant crocodiles rampaging in Jiangnan City in the future."

"Many citizens expressed their high praise for the level of this exercise. They said that the sound of artillery can be heard tens of kilometers away from the exercise site. With such an army, they can sleep peacefully even if it is noisy."

"…that's it?"

"And that's all."

"Has no one discovered that the King Jiangnan of the Southern Dynasty is missing from the ancient tomb in Jiangnan City?"

"The people in the museum issued an announcement saying that the body of King Jiangnan had rotted due to improper protection, and archaeologists are urgently rescuing him."

"...make it up, keep making it up..."

Hearing this, the man in the felt hat was furious again. The people in the Jiangnan City Hall completely treated ordinary people like monkeys, and they didn't tell the truth at all.

"Then the Jiangnan King is really gone?"

"Our judgment is that it is gone, but we don't know the specific situation. The city hall has classified this matter as highly confidential, and people who are not of a certain level have no idea what's going on inside."

"Good, good, good!"

"Well done, the people in the Jiangnan City Hall really have a way, and this crisis has been directly invisible."

Hearing this, the leader of the felt hat stood up and circled around the chair a few times.

The people in the city hall handled all aspects of the details very well, and they couldn't find a chance at all.

After thinking for a moment, his mood quickly stabilized again.

"You really can't find out where the Jiangnan King is? That's the old corpse king in 1200. The formation we set up at the beginning was the eight-direction spirit-gathering formation, which can greatly speed up the recovery of strength. With his ability, even if he is only Soon after waking up, it won’t disappear without even making a sound.”

"We have tried our best to investigate, but no one dared to disclose the situation that time. If there are too many inquiries, it is easy to arouse their vigilance."

The leader of the felt hat heard this and pressed his head, feeling that things were a little tricky.

He thought for a while, then asked again.

"Is there any other news in Jiangnan City recently? What about the spirit beast created by Huangshan Temple? I heard that the spirit beast has been in the Lushui River, and the people in Huangshan Temple have not subdued it, and even the Jiangnan Ability Bureau has not taken care of it. What is going on? Do you know what is going on?"

"We already have some clues about this matter. The people from the Ability Bureau can't find anything, but because the people in Huangshan Temple are mixed, we still found something interesting."

"What is it? Say it quickly."

"It's not about the spirit beast, it's about the monks and Jiangnan City Hall."

"Recently, a few eminent monks came from the north. After resting in Huangshan Temple for a few days, they collectively went to the city hall to find trouble with the director."

"It is reported that they seem to be going to suppress a big demon, but the people in the Jiangnan City Hall do not allow it, and now they are in a stalemate."

"The host Qianye of Huangshan Temple has been trying to smooth things over, but he can't handle the conflict between them."

"An eminent monk from the north? Suppressing the big devil? Where did the big devil come from in Jiangnan City? What are those old stubborn people doing here... Well, no matter what they want to do, we can add fire here. Demon, it is an act of infinite merit... With such good cannon fodder, why not use it?"

Thinking of this, the leader of the felt hat smiled and gave instructions to the people sitting there.

"Find out what those bald donkeys want to do, and then according to the situation, we must support it unconditionally. It is best to make more blows and let their conflicts escalate. It is best to fight."

"A few highly respected monks had problems, and even the Jiangnan City Hall couldn't handle it for a while. Then we added fuel to the flames behind the scenes, making the entire Jiangnan City as chaotic as possible."

"By the way, if there is a chance, we can send someone to lure some ferocious beasts over, and take advantage of the chaos to cleanse the people in the Ability Bureau."

"Got it, let's get ready."

After receiving the task, the restless people quickly left the person in front of them as if they had received an amnesty.

The leader of the felt hat looked at the leaving crowd and said nothing.

He stretched out his sleeve, revealing a token, in which the word "broken" was engraved impressively.

"How could we have a chance if the sect started in troubled times and if there is no chaos? Our generation of cultivators has always fought against the sky, the earth, and people, and we are free and easy, and we go against the sky.

"Even if the road ahead is long, we are still going ahead."
